    I figure that shooter, not trying it on a 6, or at all for that matter...just something inside talks to me.

    CT is hell on a camera lens !



    Usually the camera is in front of the rear tire.

    This is the most convincing video I've seen to get me to think about it. The CT on the M109 was flat across, nothing like this Michelin.

    Cool

    The simple fact is.....until YOU ride a bike with a CT on the rear....the rest is just someone else's opinion .........

    Owned my Valk for 12 years went darkside in year 8! I now forget why I waited. I should have done it from the start like I have on both my Wing and 6! The only way to know is to try it. It's not hard to switch back!

    New darkside

    Just installed my new mich alpin on the rear. Eased
    Her down on the right side, took the old off put the new on. Took about 30 minutes from start to finish. Only had 30 minutes of sunlte but took her for a short ride. No learning curve at all. Thanks for a lot of good info. This forum is what helped me to decide on a ct....looking forward to not having to change tires so often.

    I get a kick out of people who complain or have an opinion about something they have never done......
